I am interested in advice on this question too. Same h/phones but potential source is OPPO UDP205

I looked into this one for my mom. Did not buy it yet though.

And this one,

I have not tried either of them yet. So…

I use this one:

I have set it up with both Optical an Analog in. Works a treat, very good range. Low latency with my both my Sennheiser and Sony headphones.

Bluetooth to wireless headphones. Huh!?

It’s a mom thing.:sunglasses:

Heh, that and as a way to bridge the gap between her laptop and her speakers. But that went away when she got the KEF LS50 wireless. :smile:

Hi Gary,

Just wondering now, how is the Avantree Oasis Plus working? Do you use it with the optical in? And if so, does it support a sample rate of 44.1 kHz?

Thanks in advance.

Joost.

I’ve contacted Avantree. This device is 48KHz only. So Roon will up- or downsample if the music is at another sample rate…

Hello
has anyone seen any USB bluetooth transmitter that can handle sample rate >44100?

The problem is that all these low cost can handle 44100 … so no possibility to stream via airplay.

Thanks
